    Hi, I'm starting to work on VOXL2 for our new project, and pretty new here.
    I discovered that VOXL2 needs more add-on's and expansion board to meet our requirements.
    So, please review if my plan to meet some of requirements is right.

    1. CAN interface required => add Flight Core
      : Since VOXL2 has no CAN support, I found the Flight Core as required supplement. I'm planning to run PX4 on Flight Core and run VIO and VOA from VOXL2.

    2. HDMI interface required => use HDMI to USB-C conversion device
      : We need to use a EO/IR camera with HDMI interface. I found a thread about this topic, and it seems it is possible to use HDMI to USB-C converter on VOXL2. I will need much more support on this one later, but for now, I just need to know if any COTS HDMI to USB-C converter works with VOXL2.

    3. Related with #2, possible USB Add-On requirement
      : Is it possible to use built-in USB-C port (primarily used as adb shell connection) or should I need other USB expander for HDMI to USB conversion?

    4. S-BUS input and PWM output => Flight Core
      : I was looking at VOXL2 IO at first, but the Flight Core could solve the CAN interface problem too. Please check if VOXL2 IO is not required at all if Flight Core is used.

        @J-B-Song Hello J.B Song, Did you connect HDMI via USB-C on VOXL2? Did you use this image
